Roku’s pending demise—it seemed apparent to me back when my Roku 4 was EOL’ed. Seemed like there was some kind of battle over streaming channels and some apps weren’t available. I understand the Roku 4 EOL was a little early due to some quirks of the device itself, since the Roku 3 is still supported today. The remote control was also poorly designed—it chewed through batteries like it was on a mission to prop up Duracell stock, and there was a noticeable delay between when you pressed a button and when the button took any action. The overall experience (declining app selection and poor experience with hardware) had me leaving Roku behind. My next TV will be a commercial digital signage display, unless somebody convinces me otherwise.
